The Swingline ClassicCut Laser Guillotine Trimmer is steady and precise, with a self-sharpening guillotine blade, an alignment grid, and a red laser light. Sturdy trimmer is built with a durable, wood base to withstand heavy use. A 12” cutting length makes it a convenient choice for most general trimming tasks, while the self-sharpening blade is designed for consistent service. The trimmer easily cuts paper, photos, and more, cutting up to 15 sheets. Battery-operated, red laser light clearly illuminates the cutting line, for additional precision, along with the built-in alignment grid. Includes 2 AAA batteries and an Alien key to adjust the laser. Dual scale ruler with marks in inches and centimeters allows for easy measuring. Safety features include a guard rail to keep your fingers away from the blade, and a blade latch hook that secures the arm in a locked position when the trimmer is not in use..
